We use the following types of cookies on our Services:
Strictly Necessary Cookies. These cookies are essential because they enable you to use our Services. For example, strictly necessary cookies allow you to access secure areas on our Services.

If you do this, however, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit a site and some features and services may not work.
6.4 Web Pixels .
To see how successfully our marketing campaigns or other goals of the Services are performing we sometimes use conversion pixels, which fire a short line of code to tell us when you have clicked on a particular button or reached a particular page (e.g. a thank you page once you have completed the procedure for subscribing to one of our services or have completed one of our forms). We also use web pixels to analyze usage patterns on our Services. The use of a pixel allows us to record that a particular device, browser, or application has visited a particular webpage.

If you close your customer account, we will delete all the data we have stored regarding you. If it is not possible or necessary to completely delete your data for legal reasons, the relevant data will be blocked for further processing. If data is blocked, technical and organisational measures are used to ensure that only a few employees can access the relevant data, based on need to know and only for select purposes (e.g. in the event of a tax audit).Blocking will occur, for example, in the following cases:
(A) Your order and payment details and perhaps other details are generally subject to various legal retention obligations, such as those in the Handelsgesetzbuch (HGB - Commercial Code) and the Abgabenordnung (AO - Tax Code). The law obliges us to retain this data for tax audits and financial audits for up to ten years. Only then can we finally delete the relevant data.
(B) Even if your data is not subject to any legal retention obligation, we may refrain in the cases allowed by the law from immediate deletion and instead carry out initial blocking. This applies especially in cases where we may need the relevant data for further contractual processing or prosecution or legal defence (e.g. in the event of complaints). The decisive criterion for the duration of the blocking is then the legal limitation periods. After the relevant limitation periods expire, the relevant data will finally be deleted.
Deletion may be waived in the cases allowed by law if the data is anonymous or pseudonymous and deletion would rule out or seriously hinder processing for scientific research or statistical purposes.
9. How is my personal data protected?
We use technical and organisational measures to secure our systems. With regard to your order and your customer login, we transmit your personal data securely using SSL encryption (Secure Socket Layer).
10. Your rights
10.1 Your rights against us as data controller
You have the following rights against us as a data controller in respect of personal data relating to you:
(A) right to information,
(B) right of rectification or erasure,
(C) right to restriction of processing,
(D) right to object to processing,
(E) right to data portability.
(F) right to withdraw consent (in case consent is the basis for data processing).
10.2 Information requests
In order to ensure that your data is not disclosed to third parties in the course of requests for information, please attach sufficient proof of identity to your request.
10.3 Withdrawal of consent.
If you have given your consent to the processing of your data, you may revoke this consent at any time. Such revocation affects the permissibility of the processing of your personal data after you have expressed it to us. The permissibility of the processing of your data up to the time of your revocation remains unaffected.
10.4 Objection in case of processing on the basis of balancing of interests
(A) Insofar as we base the processing of your personal data on a balancing of interests, you may object to the processing. This is the case if the processing is not necessary, in particular, for the fulfilment of a contract with you, which is shown by us in each case in the following description of the functions. When exercising such an objection, we ask you to explain the reasons why we should not process your personal data in the way we have done. In the event of your objection, we will review the situation and either cease or adjust the data processing or show you our compelling legitimate grounds for continuing the processing.
(B) Of course, you can object to the processing of your personal data for advertising and data analysis purposes at any time. The best way to exercise your advertising objection is to contact us using the contact details provided above.
You also have the right to complain to a data protection supervisory authority about our processing of your personal data. The competencies of the supervisory authorities depend on the seat of the data controller. You may, however, contact any data protection authority in any member state of the European Union, in particular at your place of residence, which will forward your complaint to the competent authority.
11. Changes to this Privacy Policy
Further improvements to our website or changes in legal or regulatory requirements may require changes to this privacy notice. Thus, we encourage you to re-read this Privacy Notice from time to time.
